To the guy hoping to hear it on the radio...I wouldn't hold your breath. Back in 99 DOTF was released as a single also, and was supposed to get airplay and never did (as far as I know). if it were to get any airplay, it would only play on a classical or eclectic station that airs NPR, or the like. Though its a hit among fans, commercial radio does not have a large enough audienceof listeners that would be interested in hearing this. MTV is an exception since the film is a cultural /media event and the new visuals in the video will mean a lot of people will be tuning in. ATS isn't mainstream enough for a pop radio station to play it. Unless , that is, they did a techno remix, which might be interesting.

By the way, I suppose the old Moby rumor is wrong. Would be cool if he got his hands on the theme and that was the single.

I just listened to the soundtrack, at work, and my impressions are that it is excellent, adventurous music! It makes me want to see the film right now...
I like it better than TPM soundtrack, which I thought was well done.
I highly recommend it....the kind of music you can play again and again, and not get tired of it.

I'm not sure, but the radio edit could be the music video without the video. If it's anything like TPM's video, it has sound clips from the movie and everything, and the length would be about right.

Also, when shopping for the soundtrack, I was able to find three of the covers. I went to three different places (K-Mart, Wal-Mart, FYE), and none of them had the Yoda cover! Was anyone able to find the Yoda cover?

I live in Australia and I looked everywhere for the Episode 2 soundtrack today but could not find it

I asked the guy working there and he said "is there a new Star Wars film coming out?, I didn't know that and I have not heard about any Episode 2 soundtrack". What a jerk. I wonder where he has been living the last 3 years...On Pluto.

I picked it up this morning in the States. Anakin and Padme cover from Best Buy.

Has an "exclusive" card in it too. I'm now one of 50,000 to have the card. Don't I feel special

Anyways, the soundtrack is well worth it just for the quality. Williams' music always sounds much better in original format because he uses such a wide range of sounds in at at a wide range of volumes.

I just put the soundtrack (from Wal-Mart)into my computer and it gives my computer a heart attack. Nothing loads, the music or the extra thing, and it stalls my comp until I take the disk out. What am I doing wrong?

It's not Wal-Mart. That report was wrong. It's Target, as Destroyer pointed out in [link=http://boards.theforce.net/message.asp?topic=6550151]this[/link] thread. I've checked, and it's true. There's no track 14 listed on the back of the packaging, but there is a sticker on the front:

And there it is, at track 14.

Also, the disc has given me no problems in the car or on the computer. I'm listening to it now on my computer, as a matter of fact, just as I listened to it in the car on the way home. I've also copied a track to both mp3 and wav as a test, and the disc is not copy protected. So whatever problems you guys are having are likely related to the CD-ROM content via the screensaver. The Target disc has the bonus track instead of the screensaver that is available on the Wal-Mart disc.

In your opinion. Aside from Zam the Assassin, it's the best action cue on the disc, IMO.

You can hear it in the new TV spots they're running, spotlighting different characters. They're looping one portion of it, but it's a great track. It's the only music in the Anakin spot, and it comes in at :16 on the Jango spot.
